Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with the Nigerian winger.
According to a report from Africanfootball.com, Moses Simon is a top summer target for Tottenham Hotspur, and the player himself is said to be excited at the prospect of facing the North London club early next year.
Moses currently plays for Belgian club Gent, who were drawn against Tottenham in the last-32 of this season’s Europa League.
While Tottenham fans will be disappointed to have dropped into Europe’s second competition, it at least gives them the chance to see one of their alleged targets up close.
A source told Africanfootball.com, “The player himself wants to play in the Premier League and he is very excited that Gent have been drawn against Spurs.
“It will be a big chance to show the…club just how good he is.”
Simon is predominantly a left winger although he can also play up front if required. However it is out wide where he has made his name, with his blistering pace causing opposition defences no end of problems.
The 21-year-old has scored 13 goals and provided 13 assists in 85 appearances for Gent to date, and while he has a contract until the summer of 2019, his future continues to generate plenty of speculation.
Tottenham will do everything in their power to negate Simon’s impact when the two sides meet, but if the player gets the better of them, it could ensure Spurs ultimately make their move.
